Bee gees Albums: Too whom it may concern.

 

To whom it may concern:



This is the 11th studio album by the these talented brother; and it is as the title suggests  a plea for someone to listen and give them a chance-- and this was down to the fact that they had just hit a bit of a rough patch which would last till 1975 and cover a number of albums (which; of course, each one was a top notch album-- even if i may say so)  which show case a wide range of musical genres.  

This, album,  however is one which gives us 13 tracks which are diverse from rock-stands such as lost the rod and bad, bad dreams to ballads such as run to me and never been alone. And then there are other interesting stand out tracks like paper-Mache and sweet songs of summer which very experimental in nature and expression. 

Let me just put forth one track which deserves a mention: 

Road to Alaska

Brilliant from Birth compilation

 Brilliant from Birth:  Released in 1998, this is a compilation album which covers the Australian days, from 1963-66 which contains songs from their first two albums "sing and play"  and "spicks and specks"  these albums contain 26 songs; 14 on the first and 12 on the later. However,  the thing that makes this compilation stand out is that contains another 12 songs which were meant to be their 3rd Australian album but was put aside because they seeked to try their best to crack the international scene; and cracked it they most certainly did.  Now the most important point that this collection of songs provides us is the rear in sight into seeing group develop both as singers which would be more profound in years to come; but here we see the seed being planted. And more to the point of them as writers and composer of all the songs from these original albums.  While it is safe to say that in later works several songs will be standards and be singled out b...
